March 13 UFC Fight Night Event: No Longer Taking Place

(Well, this is going to make my archiving and categorizing here on MMAjunkie.com a big ol’ mess.)

Apparently, the UFC Fight Night event that was rumored for March 13 has been scratched from the 2007 calendar. From MMAWeekly.com:

The UFC Fight Night event that had been tentatively scheduled to take place on March 13th will not be taking place. Instead, the second UFC Fight Night of the year will be the previously scheduled April 5th installment.

Honestly, though, this isn’t too surprising. Considering few rumored matches were coming out of any camps or MMA media outlets, I had a feeling this might happen. Even this morning, MMAjunkie.com reader “Cayman” pointed out that the event was only eight weeks away and no fights were really being discussed.

A total of 26 fighters got their chance to shine on Saturday as part of UFC 190 at Rio de Janeiro’s HSBC Arena. Now that UFC 190 is in the books, it’s time to commence MMAjunkie’s “Three Stars” ceremony.

The man known for cranking submissions to the point of injury added eye-gouging to his repertoire. But is the controversy of Rousimar Palhares too essential to his bizarre, awful appeal for his employers to take any meaningful action against him?
